I have installed koha on an institute that has several institutes and each institute has a server running a mysql sever. how can i interconnect all the three databases to so as they can all be at sync where by users can borrow books and return books in any of the three institutes. I do not want to maintain one koha server with several libraries and branches because am not on a reliable Network. I want them to be updating each other. *****************************************************************************>The information contained in this communication is confidential and > may be legally privileged.

Why would "updates" be any more reliable, especially when there is no mechanism for data integrity across different DBs? I.E., you have no way to know whether a barcode, itemnumber, biblionumber, etc. is already in use in one of the other DBs, so you can't possibly know what it refers to. One DB w/ multiple libraries (branches) is the only way to approach this. --Joe Atzberger
Dear all, I would like to include framework name when importing MARC records. For that I have added a tag and subfield on each record with framework name defined with KOHA. I have too linked MARC to KOHA with that tag/subfield but it never accept neither import. Any hint? Thanks, Rafael

I also wanted to do that, but didn't find solution, so I managed this after migration. I filled biblio.frameworkcode with appropriate code. Regards, --- Marijana Glavica Faculty of Humanities and Social Sciences Libraries I. Lucica 3, 10000 Zagreb, Croatia http://www.knjiznice.ffzg.hr
It seems that such field is managed internaly. So the only way was what you sugest filling biblio.framework. Thanks, Rafael Citando Marijana Glavica <mglavica@ffzg.hr>:
